SUVW, German-Engineered for all.
Welcome into the Glimbeck program, and yes, it is the day after Thanksgiving.
It is Black Friday.
In fact, they've got a new nickname for this day that I wasn't even aware of,
and we'll fill you in on that.
It has to do with, I'll just have to do with something that everyone may be experiencing
record numbers today.
It's Justin Barkley, live from Michigan.
Today, of three full hours out of Detroit.
Detroit and West Michigan.
It's Detroit's News Talk Super Station 9.10 a.m.
And in here in Michigan, West Michigan, Grand Rapids, it's news radio with 1,3069 FM.
So we've got lots of ground to cover.
Today, Riley Gaines joins us.
You know, they've got another record breaker.
Another one of these record breakers that he's swimming in sports for men, just, I don't know,
just days prior switches over to the women's category.
And there he is.
Or she is.
What now?
Megan.
Megan.
Breaking records.
Riley Gaines out there trying to explain it all.
And she'll join us coming up on the program about a half an hour from now.
But also we're going to hear from Julie Kelly.
If you don't know who Julie is, he's at the forefront of all of the reporting that's happening right now.
it is it's been arduous but she's been in courtroom she's been watching the judges she's been
reporting on all things january 6th and even some of the cases that president trump is having to deal
with right now she's going to join us with a little bit of an update later on in the program the latest
you know we heard that these videos were going to be the latest
batch coming in some of the new stuff coming out then some of the things that we've we've already
seen, but she's
going to walk us through it all.
And what we can maybe expect coming
in the days ahead is
Maga Mike Johnson.
I think that's what they're calling. Democrats now call him.
Mega, mega, Mike Johnson.
He's released some of the
latest tapes. And the story that
this stuff paints,
the picture that it
paints,
it really is
fascinating because it's turning
some heads and I think
some of us are starting to get a better read
on what's going on.
But first, let's start here.
The Rainbow Bridge.
Did you see this just a day before Thanksgiving?
And probably a day before Pat and Stu
were wrapping things.
I mean, that day, wrapping things up
and this story breaks just later on in the afternoon.
A car explodes.
The rainbow break.
This is a bridge that goes, I guess,
over into from America into Canada at Niagara Falls.
It is an interesting area.
One, like, very similar to where I am right now, we have a Detroit Windsor crossing.
We have a bridge and there's a tunnel.
It goes under and over the Detroit River and then into Canada.
And I've been through and that crossing, I've done the bridge and I've done the tunnel.
And they're building a new bridge right now.
but there's so much traffic that comes through.
Do you know that it is like when you're going into Canada specifically,
it is like, I mean,
they are going to inspect you with a fine-tooth comb.
They are going to poke you.
They are going to prod you.
You're going to ask you about things that you may have posted online 10, 20 years ago.
I don't know.
I mean, they dig deep into your past.
So it's wild what happens to get over into Canada.
Coming in the United States,
I don't know if it's as tight.
We know that we've got issues with our southern border.
That's obvious.
We got millions of people coming across every single day.
There's more and more coming, pouring across every day.
Wide opening in a Biden administration out there, lifting up razor wire, cutting it first, right?
And then they were told by court, you can't do that, that the governor in Texas is laid out.
If then you've got the Biden administration, oh, we can't cut it.
Okay, well, we'll just lift it up with a bulldozer.
Yeah, that's great.
So borders wide open.
And meanwhile, they've got a terrorist alert.
I don't know if you saw this, but Governor of the York fully aware of it, CBS, I think, had the first full report on it.
Catherine Herod, who came out and said, yep, you know, they are looking at a terrorist report, at least threats that something may take place here over the holiday weekend.
Payne to security alerts suggesting an increasing terrorist threat to New York.
York State. The New York State Intelligence Bulletin points to Israeli operations against
Hamas, and specifically that the increase in civilian casualties raises the likelihood that
violent extremist threat actors will seek to conduct attacks against targets in the West,
with New York State being a focus. So that was out there, and as that was out there, and very
rightly so, people are rather concerned. So when you have this explosion that takes place,
at the border, you can understand. People are saying, well, that's what it looks like.
Was a terrorist attack? A car filled with explosives? But I'm here to tell you what actually took
place was much, or at least what we're being told right now. That took place much stranger
than what we were initially thinking with the terrorist attack. Here's some of the reporting
a $300,000 car, a wife and husband off to a kiss in concert, ended up at a casino instead,
and then in flames.
Well, investigators have been going backwards through the day of the person they believed to be the driver of that car.
And what they see is a 56-year-old man from the area, he lives in a very upscale island,
and that's not far away, who had intended to go to the Kiss concert, which was canceled,
then changed his plans to a casino where he spent some time,
and then leaves the casino and then drives at a high rate of speed along this road in Niagara Falls,
hits the divider, goes airborne, as the governor said, and lands in an explosion.
Authorities believe he was in the car with his wife.
This was a Bentley, two-door Excelsior X.
This is a car that goes for about $300,000 new.
So it does not, as Matt Maragula from the FBI indicated, the special agent in charge in Buffalo, who runs the Joint Terrorism Task Force up there, does not have any of the earmarks of terrorism.
It looks much more as they have been able to go backwards to it like a terrible accident.
The question is why, and they're still looking at that.
Somebody on my morning show to Detroit today actually sent me a message.
What about all these black boxes, these smart cars have now?
Can they dig in and get some information?
You know, they're always creeping on us, and they're trying to get that, you know, privacy issues and things like that.
Any way that they can dig into the black box and find out what happened?
Because the thing was going at a high-risk.
I saw the, I guess one of the guys that witnessed this, a resident there come out.
he was interviewed.
He said, no, no, nothing like they said that actually happened.
This car, and here's another piece that I find kind of interesting,
was actually circling around the area multiple times.
He said that looked a little suspicious to him.
Then he saw it rev up high rate of speed.
It must have had some sort of incline or some sort of concrete embankment or something,
and that's when it goes airborne finally impacts on another,
look like concrete or steel beam, something.
inside that post before you get to the actual bridge,
and Border Patrol will oversee.
And that's where the explosion happened.
So I'm just telling you, the thing that came out,
and I don't know terrorism or what I don't really know,
that we'll ever know the real truth about what actually happened here.
But terrorism, it looks like it probably was.
What happened?
I don't, I guess it's hard to make sense of it.
I think maybe what did happen is far more strong.
range, then what will ever know? Who knows? Whether drugs or alcohol or something like that
involved, I don't know. But it is just part of the stories. And I know since we've probably had a
chance to talk, that's the latest in the outbound happening right now as we speak. Today,
the first group of Hamas hostages is set to be released. That's as we speak right now,
the first group.
I haven't seen any actual reports that they have been yet released.
There's a group of these, maybe 50 or so.
And then there's an exchange of prisoners that are being held that are going to be released as well.
I think there's about 150.
And this is during the four-day, the first of which, during the four-day ceasefire,
that seems like it's ticking so far.
Praying for those people, one of the saddest stories out of all of them is the three-year-old girl who is an orphan.
Now her mother and father both killed in those attacks on our first.
October 7th, and she, you know, I've got a daughter her age, she is yet to be released.
And I can't imagine what she's going through.
I can't imagine what that's going to be like for her surviving family.
It is, it is unthinkable.
We're praying for those people and we'll continue to cover that story and more today.
But we are, we're just getting started.
So it's Buckley in for Beck today.
You want to join us on the program.
I'm any kind. You can at AAA.
Hold on.
I just forgot the number.
I'll give it to you in a second. We come back. I get that. I promise.
I'm just kind of getting my footing here and we'll get things rolling.
Riley Gaines coming out. We're also going to talk to Julie Kelly today.
Lots loaded up in for back after this.
What are you looking for when you walk down the meat aisle at the grocery store?
You're looking for some kind of real good meat that you can feed your family, right?
You want something raised in America and you're looking for something
and close to expiring because that's the only way you can get a good price.
If you are in this situation, what you put on your table matters.
And that's why you should get your meat from good ranchers,
because you're going to cover all of those things.
85% of the grass-fed beef is imported from overseas, but not with good ranchers.
They source all of their high-quality beef and chicken from local farms and ranches.
And from every box ordered, good ranchers donates 10 meals to Americans in need.
That's over a million meals so far.
So do good while you eat good.
settle for less than the best meats and don't settle for meat that's been raised overseas.
Go to good ranchers.com and use my promo code Beck for $25 off any box.
Do some serious good for yourself, your family, and others by having American meat delivered
to your door.
Good Ranchers.com.
Use the promo code Beck for $25 off at good ranchers.com.
Welcome back. It's Sparkley and for Beck today on the Glenn Beck program on a
interesting, that's just going to be a Black Friday to remember.
You know, one of the things that I find most fascinating about where we are right now, particularly in the weird economic times that we're facing, is that there is more of a, is more of a strain.
There's more of an economic strain, I think, than we've ever felt before.
And it is, you know, it's from everything.
but there's a there's a there's plenty of Biden campaign out there sitting out talking points for
Thanksgiving I don't know how your Thanksgiving went was there any talk any politics over
the turkey uh I am uh I'm actually grateful that it didn't nothing escalated nothing
got any weirder than it really normally does uh it's family so it's always good
It's going to be some weirdness to it, right?
You know?
But no, nothing got too weird.
I will say that I thought it was fasting Biden administration, the campaign, they put out these talking points.
Here's how you deal with anything from the only economy as good as it was under Trump, too.
What about the polls?
I overheard some interesting conversation.
I'm going to save that for later, and along with the talking point, I'll just tell you something that I don't think anybody can deny.
although they're trying
particularly the Biden campaign folks
they're trying
it's not as bad it would be worse
if it were Trump so just imagine
that that's kind of where they're at but
it's no denying things are really tough
for a lot of people this is a woman who's gone viral
over a million of years
at the first time I saw it over on TikTok
she'd gone viral talking about how bad things are
the average American and she says you know they're just not making
it
I don't know I'm making it
video but like I feel like my husband and I are doing everything right we both
have good jobs I'm a nurse I'm a registered nurse who work full-time he works
full-time we just got paid this past Friday right we paid the mortgage
bought some groceries put some gas in the car
And guys, it is Tuesday.
And we have like two or three hundred dollars to last us until next Friday.
Like, we don't live at a big house.
We live in a little...
It's nice. It's modest, but it's nice.
A little ranch.
It's 1,100 square feet.
Three bedrooms, one bath, us and our two kids.
And, like, I don't know what to do.
I'm in school full time
I work full time
he works more than full time
he works overtime every week
I don't know what to do
the comment section of this was just
as you can imagine
everybody blaming her judging her
but also saying you know yeah everything's bad
and then some people say wait a minute you have 300 bucks
left over
you're rich
rich
It is, it's, as I said, it's going to be interesting at Black Friday.
So here's what we have.
We have people feeling the pain because they barely have any money and they've dipped into savings.
I mean, 25% still have debt from last year's Christmas shopping, holiday shopping.
And then you have the companies who know the retail's not really going in a good direction,
no matter how much Biden administration tries to tell us.
Oh, no, no, things are great.
things are great don't worry about it it's great keep going out there and spending dip into your
savings rack up debt get those credit cards as high as you can with all the the interest rates on
right now holy cow but this is what the average person i think they're doing that just to just
just to hit the normal groceries the normal bills and that's what she means she goes through
she's an r-in she goes through what her husband does the whole thing they're so stressed out
this isn't how it's supposed to be
you know growing up we were told
you know
go to college get a degree
work to support your family
here we are
did that
now what
now what
gotta feel that pain
I'm not into politics
I don't follow it
frankly that stresses me out too
but like
that might be the problem
I'm not into politics
I don't follow it that stresses me
I think that might be the problem
here's another problem
I don't know
somebody
somebody has to do something
to change this because
I make good money
he makes good money
we don't live above our means
I don't know
I'm not going to get it to the math
of what they're doing although it does seem like
they're making add or above six figures
and I mean the
depending on where they are, they're in Pennsylvania somewhere,
but where they are and where, that's, well, they used to be decent money,
but maybe the math has changed.
And maybe the reality of why it's changed is Biden inflation.
Inflation is theft.
It steals from every single one of us.
I saw a guy do the math.
He said he used to be $70,000 was all you needed.
The average, now you need to make $120,000.
So people are being robbed right and left.
What does that look like on a Black Friday?
Will tensions be high, violence and things like?
that as people are rushing into the stores to try and grab something.
They have some semblance of normality in this crazy world.
It's like drinking from a firehouse.
We keep you up to date with all of it.

It's AAA 727 Beck, B-E-C-K.
8-8-7-27 Beck.
If you want to join the program at any time, love to have you.
And of course, this story is another one of these world records that's been smashed.
It's amazing.
It's amazing.
Swimming as a man just days prior and now swimming as a woman, New Jersey liberal arts college,
Megan Cortez Fields, a student there,
smashes women's 100-yard butterfly record after competing in the men's team for three years.
years. So I guess what this is is if you're just not making it, if you're just not cutting it,
you can have massive success if you just make the switch. And that's about all you have to do,
really. I mean, you don't have to probably do much to qualify. Riley Gaines has been very
outspoken about this. Slam for UK. And of course, now is really the one out there ringing
a bell about the fairness in these sports and particularly particularly.
protecting young women.
Riley, we appreciate you joining us.
I got two daughters of my own.
This is very important.
I watch this and I think,
what in the world are they facing?
But you've stared it down,
the barrel and come out better,
I think, on the other side.
What about this latest story?
This is just another in the saga.
I appreciate you being here with us.
Well, I appreciate you, Justin,
and you're exactly right.
This is just another story.
another story of the exact same scenario, right?
We've seen this time and time and time again.
Make no mistake, this is a mediocre male athlete who is just that mediocre average at best
to then switching to the women's team and becoming a record smasher, like you said.
We saw this, of course, in regards to Leah Thomas.
We saw this now at this college in New Jersey.
We saw this at the college at Roanoke College.
it's continuing to happen.
And notice, of course, it's only going one way.
We only see men infiltrating into women's sports and not the other way around.
And, of course, ask yourself why.
And I think every common sense person knows exactly why.
And it's because males are advantageous when it comes to something that requires sheer strength or athleticism.
And it's not sexist or bigoted to say that.
You know, it seems like common sense, but now we can't even agree apparently these days.
and what a woman is.
So it's this crazy conversation that's taking place where people are, I think,
rationally standing up and saying, no, no, no, I'm not going to, and you're one of them.
So, you know, you ought to be applauded for that.
But I'm not going to waver here.
And yet we see more and more of this.
And I don't know the details of this particular swimmer, whether there was like a full transformation
that went through, you know, physically.
you can't change down to the genetics.
There are things that you just can't change.
You could cut and tuck and nip and slice and dice all you want.
But the truth is down to the genetic level, you can't make those changes.
There are advantages, and you point that out.
This is, but this isn't the only sport.
Swimming seems like we see this more and more, but there are other sports, including like fighting.
I've seen some of these cases where some of these fighters,
decided they're going to get that's that's just crazy abuse to me of course and when you when you have
sports like fighting or for example like field hockey which we saw recently you have to add in the
safety element to it because you know in regard to swimming uh of course the argument is about fair
competition and women losing out on opportunities and our our privacy aspect in the locker room
but we didn't necessarily have to worry about our physical safety because there's no collision or
or throwing something at one another and swimming,
but in field hockey, recently in Massachusetts,
a male player playing on the women's team,
of course, posing as a woman,
hit a woman in the face,
and I just talked with her team and her teammates.
She lost her teeth, several of her teeth,
and had to undergo facial reconstruction surgery
to reconstruct her jaw.
Same thing with Peyton McNabb,
a volleyball player in high school in North Carolina,
who was hit in the face by a male again,
playing on the women's team.
Still to this day, this has been a year
in three months since, still
to this day from that hit.
She's now not playing college sports
like she was supposed to.
Her vision is impaired.
She's still partially paralyzed
on her right side of her body.
She has to have special accommodations
for testing at school,
all because of the brain injury she had
from the male. And look, that's not to say
that women playing against women,
there's no injuries or injuries,
or injuries never happen
because of course they do, but in
those cases and many more,
those injuries should have never
happened.
You know, I'm, Riley Gaines joins us right now
to talk about this latest story and
so many others in this whole situation, but
you know,
I just, you're looking at these things
and every
one of these stories has something
I think that's very similar
in common, which is the solution.
We just played this
this clip with this woman who is
going on about how bad the
economy is and how much
pain she and her family are feeling and how far
things have come for them and they're making
good money but they're finding it harder and harder
every day to survive and I understand that I get
that a lot of people are going through that right now
they think they're doing the right things
but she says a couple of things
number one she says
you know I'm not political
I don't like to really get political
it stresses me out she says
and then following that up she says
somebody's got to do something.
Something is, it's so bad right now,
but somebody has got to do something.
And I think to myself,
I mean, she's nailed it,
she doesn't realize it in both of those statements, right?
Like, I'm not political.
Well, that's how we got into this place.
Of course.
There are a lot of people that are sitting on the sidelines right now
to use a sports friend,
but they're sitting on the sidelines watching all of this go down.
The world's burning.
And they don't want to get political
because, you know, it stresses them out.
But the alternative is this dumpster
fire that we're watching right now.
And then the second piece of it is,
somebody ought to do someone. That's right. That somebody
is you. You've got
to take a stand and I know you've chosen to do
that. Yeah. Let me tell you
when I was in the position that I was in
again, that national championships
where we face Leah Thomas, a male,
same story, 460 second
against the men to then dominating the women.
I thought the exact same thing.
I thought surely
really I thought surely someone
who was supposed to be protecting us
like our coaches or our parents or people with political power or people within the NCAA,
I thought surely someone who's supposed to be protecting us would protect us.
I mean, what a naive thought, I guess.
And I remember the moment distinctly when I decided it had to be me because I'm standing on the podium.
And look, I was smiling.
I was cheering, although I knew what was happening was wrong.
Me specifically, I was denied the trophy because they told me that Leah Thomas had to hold it.
again formerly will Thomas keep up if you can had to hold the trophy because it was crucial when photos were being taken although we tied and i remember we were cheering we were applauding we knew it was wrong we knew the unfair competition the locker of the silencing that we were facing from our universities was wrong yet we were applauding and it hit me on that podium holding this trophy i know i have to give back sharing my spot with a man how in the world could we expect someone else to save us if we weren't even
willing to save ourselves.
This has to come from us as women.
I think female athletes, and I didn't think that's for the long time, but I think
female athletes need to boycott these events where males are participating, send the
message that we're not, we've had enough.
We're rolling up our sleeves and we're saying no.
That being said, I do think parents need to step in.
We need coaches willing to defend their female athletes.
You know, we ask the question of where are the feminists?
Where are the feminists?
What about the question of where are the men?
We need strong men.
There's a lot of fingers to be pointed here in this battle.
This burden, really, shouldn't fall entirely on the shoulders of young girls and women like
myself, like it has.
No, I know dads are a big part of it.
Moms are a big part of it.
Parents got to take, coaches got to take some action.
But you're right.
All of this stops.
And you know that before when I talked to you about this, but like all of this stops when we
just refuse to participate.
Just refuse to participate in the insanity.
But that hasn't happened.
but we haven't quite hit that moment yet.
The truth is, whether it's this crazy situation,
we're talking about, you know, men competing in women's sports,
boys competing against girls, whatever it might be,
or it's things that we're dealing with in our own backyard
and takeover that's happening at every step of the direction
that we look across the country with China trying to come.
As a matter of fact, we'll have conversation about that
a little later on this morning in the program.
but also the other issues that we're facing,
the border wide open,
all of these things,
they start with us getting more engaged
in what it is that we're facing on a daily basis,
finding the strength to take action,
however that comes,
and moving forward with that.
You said something the other day on Twitter,
or X now,
and I think this is perfect.
Courage is contagious,
so is hopelessness.
And if we stick our heads in the sand,
boy,
that way and that's sometimes what I think
what they intend on us feeling
but the opposite is true too and that's the
inspiring part I think that's the part
they don't want to catch fire
is that courage is contagious
and I thank you for yours
absolutely well I
truly believe that
I think we know courage
is contagious
but like I said so is hopelessness
and so it's our job
it's our duty I think as human beings
I think as parents I think as
as women, as Christians, I think it's our duty to have hope, to stand firm, to be bold,
to be empowering, and to say the truth.
That's all this.
That's what this all boils down to is merely saying the emperor wears no clothes.
And I don't think it's hard to do, so I think it's something we should all be doing.
That again, so what are you up to now, obviously speaking out, standing strong, and I think
you've got a podcast too.
I do.
I have a podcast through Outkick.
It is the Gains for Girls podcast where interviewing, you know, different policy experts and, of course, people who have been affected by this gender ideology movement, world-renowned scientists regarding the topic.
So really cool stuff going on there.
I'm going to continue speaking at college campuses in the spring semester, which I think is really important to engage the younger generation, who certainly needs to be engaged in who I believe is desperate for the truth, to hear the truth.
So lots of really awesome things.
Another congressional hearing coming up in a few weeks
testifying in Ohio on behalf of their women's sports bill this week.
So lots of impact to be made in the near future, which is exciting.
I'm following you on X, but where's the best place people can keep up with you?

You can join us to a AAA 727 Beck.

There's a mystery illness.
overwhelming hospitals in China.
Plus, we get the update on hostages to look like some of the releases is underway right now.
But I know what you're thinking.
Here we go again.
China.
As a mystery illness.
But there's some facts.
There's some truth behind some of this that actually gives me a little bit of hope,
a little bit of encouragement that hopefully we'll get out.
Mark this date that you hear the truth because, you know, it's an election year.
So things can get a little bit.
but they could get a little weird in the coming days.
We'll get to all of that and more coming up next on the Glenn Beck program.
Parkley and from back today.
Glenn Beck.

promo code Beck or call 800-966-3117. Up on X at Mr. Justin Barclay, in fact, I'm all over
those platforms the same at Mr. Justin Barclay. Barclay and for Beck this morning and the updates
we have that hostage release is underway according to reports that are coming in right now.
It looks like about 14 imminent children being released as that C-South.
far is underway too and so far sticking for the next several days praying for those folks i've got a
i've got a story that's sending chills down the spines of a lot of folks i think mine included because
you know you're thinking yourself you're seeing this oh boy here we go again it's a story of a
virus out of china oh this is not good it is a mystery pneumonia leaving
China overwhelmed, they say, with sick children.
But I've got to slow it down.
I've got to give you a little bit of a, just to pause for caution.
Some of the things that we're hearing about this story, overwhelmed hospitals, kids,
and the worst off in all of this.
We're getting some clarification on.
It turns out China just lifted their restrictions.
So I get it.
We're going into a, nothing's off the table, but we're going into an election year.
anything's possible.
So there are people that are a little freaked out about,
I understand your concern on this,
but we're finding out the same thing
as happening in China that happened in America.
When they finally are coming off of those restrictions,
imagine that.
The masks and the protocols and all the other things they did
in order to keep people safer, quote unquote, right?
That's, it ends up hurting people.
We know this now more than ever.
We continue to hit the updates and the data,
the school closings,
hurt kids more than they could have ever imagined in so many different ways.
And mental health, particularly.
But also the fact that the kids weren't around each other.
So your immune system kind of drags when it's not competing,
when it's not out there fighting and fighting off bugs.
So now they're taking the masks off and they're out circulating again and they're being overwhelmed.
One of those things is the RSF, which is we saw all of that here in America.
So just bring you down the little bit of maybe a little bit of hope, some good news,
but we will touch on China because they are of force.
We ought to be concerned with coming up in the next hour.
You're going to hear more about that.
And what people are doing all across the country at little towns to fight back, to stand up,
maybe a blueprint for you to join the fight.
Coming up in just moments.
Sparkly in for Beck today.

Justin Barkley in for Glenn today on the Glennback program.
after this.
Akes and pains are just part of getting older.
You know it and I know it, but that doesn't mean you have to just accept it.
That's why I want to tell you the story about Nancy from Texas and her relief factor story.
For years, she took care of horses and gave riding lessons.
She started getting older and Nancy began feeling the effect, so she decided to give relief
factor a try.
It didn't work overnight, but it did work.
These days, she says, I have more stamina because I don't hurt.
With relief factor, she can keep going and doing more.
I can relate as I used to have terrible aches and pains in my hands.
It was to the point that I didn't even want to get out of bed in the morning.
But ever since starting Relief Factor, I've got my life back.
If you're living with aches and pain, see how Relief Factor, a daily, drug-free supplement,
can help you feel and live a better life every day.

You know, something interesting is happening.
You know, amongst all of the bad news that we get on a daily basis and we get lots of it, right?
It's like drinking from a fire hose, I have to say.
It's never a dull moment these days.
They're constantly under attack and look.
I think some of that is intentional.
No doubt.
I mean, the more that's thrown at us, the more that we have to dodge or fend off, well, the less
likely we are going to be able to spot what really matters most in the course, then defend
against it.
That's just the strategy of the nature of the warfare we're at right now.
What we're seeing happening is unfolding on a daily basis.
I think it's important for us to have good news, too.
In fact, I wrote a book about it.
Good news, hope and encouragement for trying times.
And that's what this is today, a story about some good news.
It happened just the other day in a small rural town.
In fact, a township just north of a place called Big Rapids, which is in Michigan, northern Michigan.
Ferris State University is the home of this place.
A place called Green Charter Township.
Americans came together, both on the left and right, to stand.
and fight back and take action against a township board that just wasn't listening.
They just weren't listening to the people.
But I don't care where you are, Democrat, Republican, left, right, whatever your politics are,
when the people who have been elected to represent you are no longer doing stuff.
In fact, they're not even listening to you.
Many have them been in place for decades.
You don't feel like they have to.
You got to stand up and you have to take action.
And people had never been involved in politics at all did just that.
And it all hinged on an electric vehicle battery plant.
A plant owned by a company proposed thereby a company named Goshen,
parent company, Goshen High Tech.
In their official company articles on their very own website,
they mentioned their allegiance with the Chinese Communist Party.
China.
As you can imagine, this isn't flying well in rural Michigan.
I don't think it would fly well really anywhere across the country.
Along with those national security implications,
there are also concerns from folks on the left about the environmental impact at this battery plant,
all the toxic chemicals that are going to be used to build these batteries.
And, of course, they're telling us, it's going to be jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, so many jobs.
you're going to love it.
The question about those jobs, how many and what the impact might be versus the other issues
as well as what really has sparked the fight left and right, standing up to fight back.
Here to talk a little bit about that.
Former Congressman, former Ambassador, right in the fight in the middle of it all, Pete Huxstra from Michigan, joining us right now.
Appreciate you, Ambassador.
How are you?
Hey, I'm doing just fine.
Thank you.
Yeah.
And thanks for staying focused on this issue.
It really is, as you characterized, it's the left and the right fighting,
but for once they're not fighting each other.
They're actually fighting together, and they're fighting the elites in their township.
They're fighting the elites in our state capital in Lansing,
and they're fighting the elites in Washington, D.C.,
who all came together and said, you know what?
Putting this mega-site battery factory in this little rural community in northern Michigan,
providing them with billions of dollars of tax breaks.
You know, we think that's a good idea.
We think that's a good idea for Green Township.
And these folks all said, what?
What say you?
We say no.
And so they, you know, they came together.
They got the signatures for a recall.
So they recalled their elected officials.
They recalled and rescinded a township ordinance that facilitated this battery plant.
and, you know, the new group has been installed.
They're already fighting back, but I think the most important thing here, Justin,
they just didn't barely win.
They crushed them.
They crushed them.
They got 70% of the vote in a recall.
They crushed them.
And hallelujah.
It was wild to watch.
You know, this whole process has been wild,
and I know that Ambassador Pete Uxcher was,
with us right now. He has been in the middle of this kind of watching and participating, helping
in the Fibring, along with Ambassador Joe Sella, Congressman John Molinar here in Michigan,
now the entire Michigan delegation coming together, actually joining with a congressman in Illinois
where coincidentally there's a battery plant, the same company wants to put in another plant
in that state as well. And this is happening across the country. This is why I bring this to your
attention is because this is a fight that is is not going anywhere. They first wanted to try this in
Alabama. And the story just came out a couple of weeks ago that the folks in Alabama looked at it and
they said, no, we're going to pass on this. Why? National security concerns. But the governor of
Michigan, who is one of the worst wicked Whitmer of Michigan, she she is, she's been all in on this,
along with Biden, and of course, she has pledged and they gave almost a billion dollars.
Michigan taxpayer money to buy the farmland. So China, buying pure Michigan farmland,
and in this case to put a battery plan on top of it, I know that's another issue that's
coming up across the country as well. What is China doing, buying up all this farmland?
And aren't we going to be maybe taking a closer look at this? Why haven't we?
It is a fight for the nation's soul, but also the nation's soul.
We really, we do have to take a closer look at some of these things because this is part of China's overall plan, isn't it?
And I know you're very familiar.
You've written a book actually on this, but the China's plans for America, they're quite detailed and they're quite patient about it, aren't they?
They really are.
I mean, they have a long-term goal to, you know, to dominate the world.
They want to be the military leader in the world.
They want to be the economic leader in the world.
uh... and you know here we are and it's not just uh... governor whitmer i mean
yeah she's right smack dab in the middle of it
but you know we ought to also lay the blame right at the feet of you know
prominent michigan republican business people
uh... it's how they get corrupted when the federal government and the state
government lays billions of dollars out in front of them for the taking
and says hey
you know we'll we'll we'll we'll slip you a few
$50 million for your priorities as we want this Chinese battery plant in Macasta County,
Green Township.
And these folks just go after the money like crazy.
And, you know, so, you know, the only place to really fight them is what the residents
in Green Township did.
They fought them at the local level.
You know, because, you know, you're fighting.
You're fighting for votes.
but you're also fighting for money.
You know, we're put up a bunch of trying to put up a bunch of legal obstacles to Goshen.
But who are we fighting?
We're fighting.
We were fighting Green Township.
We were fighting the state, their economic development group.
We were fighting an organization called the Right Place, which is a big economic development group on the west side of the state of Michigan.
These folks have deep, deep pockets, and we're fighting it with grassroots in a township.
You know, so, but, you know, don't forget the little guy.
You know, that's what America's all about.
And the little guy spoke in Green Township.
And, you know, we're moving forward.
And, you know, it's amazing that the tip of the spear of fighting the Chinese Communist Party,
you won't find the tip of the spear in Washington.
You won't find the tip of the spear in Lansing.
You find it at the local level with grass.
grassroots Americans. It's amazing that there's only a few people in Washington and in Lansing
who are willing to join this fight. But, you know, the little folks in Green Township, they said,
hey, we'll take this fight on and they've demonstrated that they can win.
Ambassador, former Ambassador Pete Huxter joins us right now. And I want to give people a chance
to help out if they can. I know this issue is far from over. It's a win. It's not the final
it's one of the battles, not the end of the war, but Macasta Environmental and Security Alliance,
you know you're working with them, Mesa, they've got a website where they are taking donations
to fight this thing off. And by the way, this win, they're in that little township of Michigan
will have echoes and reverberate across the country. And this is not just about Michigan.
It's not just about that township. It's about the fate of our country.
I know they're taking donations at protect macosta.org, the website there,
protect macosta.org, but what is the, what are those donations go to and what will that help fund in the
fight? Well, what it's been fighting so, what it's been funding so far, our legal, our legal fight
against Goshen. I mean, there's all kinds of issues that we think we can tackle this plant on,
environmental issues, a battery plant's going to be a huge consumer of water. So we're
concerned about what happens to the groundwater. We're concerned, like you said, we're concerned about,
the materials that they're going to be bringing into the site, the environmental impact that they may have.
You know, we're concerned about, you know, what it's going to do to the community.
Because as you said, it's environmentalist, it's community activists.
And thank you, Barack Obama.
It's community organizers that have joined with us who are concerned about the national security implications,
all fighting this really bad idea.
And so the funds that you donate to this organization, they're used to fight all of these initiatives
and to fight the deep pockets that you find at Goshen, that you find at the right place, that you find in Lansing, and that you find in Washington.
Remember, this is billions of dollars.
And as you said, it's not just about Macasta.
It's about what's going on in another community in Michigan, Marshall, Michigan.
And it's about what's going on in Illinois, where they want to build where Goshen wants, again, is being incentivized to build a battery plant.
But the other thing is it's a much bigger fight.
Remember during COVID?
I do.
In the Netherlands, you know, we were dependent on supplies coming in from the Chinese Communist Party coming in from China.
And the big talk was then we've got to onshore some of the production of these products.
but that fight has now gone away under the Biden administration.
We need to reshore some of these articles, some of these commodities and some of these products.
And those are the fights that on a larger scale we're also going to be engaging in.
It's battery plants and key technologies today.
Don't give China the lead.
And in the future, it's going to be resourcing to America, to our allies, the things that
we need every day to survive and be a great nation.
Former Congressman, former ambassador,
speaking of which Pete Huxstra, you just mentioned in the Netherlands.
I've got to take a quick pause here, a quick break.
If you can hang on with us through this,
I want to ask you something pretty incredible,
revolutionary is happening over there.
In fact, I think you maybe have a little insight into it.
We'll get your take on something big happening,
a conservative movement happening there.
We just saw in Argentina, conservative movement.
This is movement's happening throughout the world right now.
We'll get your take, get the pulse on that.
We come back.
Justin Barkley in for Glybeck today on the Glymbach program.

I'm back in the Black in for back today. We got a former, Congressman, former ambassador,
Pete Huxter on the phone line with us. Now, your ambassador to the Netherlands during your time,
and something big just happened there. In fact, we're seeing some things happening throughout the
world right now. It's shocking a lot of people. But there was just a massive election there,
and something wild happened.
Can you fill us in on this?
Yeah, actually, I was just in the, I just came back from the Netherlands earlier this week.
But Herrick Builders, who, you know, has been a prominent politician in the Netherlands since the 90s.
I met him when I was in Congress in the 90s.
So I've known Sherrott for almost close to 30 years.
And, you know, so he's a friend of mine.
But when I got to be the ambassador to the Netherlands, I talked to, you know, my, my,
employees at the State Department and said, hey, I'm a parliamentarian. I want to get to meet the
parliamentarians and the Dutch parliament. And they said, okay, and we'll start scheduling meetings with
you. And I said, okay, and I'd like to meet with Gerrudevilders. And they said, well, you know,
you really can't do that ambassador. And I said, what do you mean? I can't do that. Well, you know,
he's too controversial. I said, you know, it doesn't, that doesn't bother me. I mean, I ended up
meeting with the Muslim Party. And I ended up, you know, it's kind of like, no,
you're not going to tell me who I'm going to meet with. I'm going to meet with all the
parliamentarians, and that includes Herit Wilders. And so he's been on the scene for, you know,
more than 20 years. I've been, you know, spoken very aggressively on anti-Islam issues, radical Islam,
and those kinds of things. And then during, but he's also spoken on a lot of other issues,
immigration, the EU and those kinds of things. And, you know, he consistently,
in election cycles would come in, you know, somewhere between the second or the fourth,
the largest party in the Netherlands. And you say, well, you'll come in forth. And it's like,
hey, Alaska Parliament had 15 parties in it. So you come in forth, you're still a pretty
sizable voice. And in this election cycle, it appears that the same thing that happened up in
Green Township, the people who were in elected office forgot who they'd worked, who they forgot who they,
They forgot who they'd worked for.
You know, the Dutch, you know, they've been going along the green movement.
They've been the leaders in Europe on the green issues.
They were, in the last parliament, they're having huge fights with their farmers
because they want to close 30 to 50% of their farms.
Well, the Dutch are the, you know, they're a huge agricultural country.
And, you know, who told them they had to close that many farms?
The EU.
And they're saying, wait a minute.
This is our country.
You know, we'll make our rules, and we kind of like farmers, but the elites and the establishment said, no, we have to follow the EU.
And so what happened in this cycle, I think what happened on, you know, on Wednesday was the Dutch people spoke.
They were dissatisfied with the establishment parties and said, you know, you've been working on these issues for the last 13 years on immigration, on our concerns about the EU.
you haven't done anything.
And in some cases, we think that you've made the situation worse.
We're going to go with somebody that we think is finally going to confront our concerns about immigration,
who's going to confront our concerns about the green energy movement,
who's going to confront our concerns about losing our dutchness to the EU.
And, you know, there were four parties.
They were all expected to get between 20.
and 25 seats in the parliament.
And Builders came in.
Builders Party came in, what looks like now, 37 seats,
beating all expectations.
And again, not by a small margin, but by a huge and significant margin.
The challenge now for Garrett is he's got to put together a coalition.
He's got to get the 75 votes.
And we'll have to wait and see whether he can do that or not.
We'll keep an eye on all of it for you, but former ambassador to the Netherlands there.
Pete Hoekstra, appreciate your time with us.
And again, the website, you got it.
God bless you.
And if folks want to donate to that cause, Mesa, Macosta Environmental Security Alliance,
protect Macosta, M-E-C-O-S-T-A.org.
I'll put it up on the Lincoln X as well.
Coming up next, a lot of talk about Mega Mike Johnson and a lot of controversy over the new speaker of the house.
One of the controversy I never saw coming is apparently he's a guy who
who does not want to look at certain things,
doesn't want his family to see certain things,
and tell you why, and what he's doing next.

Mike Johnson.
The facts some are calling him mega, mega Mike Johnson, speaker of the house.
I think kind of a miraculous fight for the,
the speaker, you know, you'd go back and you remember how this all played out. And I was hearing
from all kinds of folks. They're in Congress, staff and people on the sidelines with other
organizations and groups. And they're talking about, there's no way. How do you get to
217? Who can do it? We'd have no clue how this is going to all go down. And of course,
just miraculous circumstances surrounding it all. And I think there was a little bit of a divine
providence, maybe divine intervention through it all.
And that's probably why I find this next story kind of fascinating, how they're going after.
Now, they're going to go after anybody.
Anybody on the right.
In fact, right now in Dublin, they are talking about the riots, the clashes that took place.
I think five people were stabbed, three kids in Dublin by somebody who was there illegally
and still learning more about that individual.
but they are now saying that these people that were protesting and part of the riots last night in Dublin,
they were far right.
So now you are far right.
It's like they will call Maga Mike Johnson.
Far right.
You're far right if you,
if you're against stabbing kits.
That's where we are right now.
The insanity of the world,
the way things are just completely turned upside down.
I guess, you know, when the world is so messed up,
just the point to me is
I don't
I don't mind being called crazy
when normal is so
evil and it's so
wrong I don't mind being called
a little nutty I don't want to be normal
and so does
neither does a Maga Mike Johnson apparently
he and his son
this is one of the stories I never thought would take
charge like it has
but it has
He has talked about how he and his son have downloaded an app to help keep them accountable so that they're not looking at things online that they shouldn't be.
Things online that aren't good for them and other people as well.
And this story, the way the world and the left, particularly media folks have reacted to it, is just incredible.
I've been watching the fallout from it all.
And I've been rather amused, but also curious, and maybe you have too.
There is an app called Covenant Eyes, and they have downloaded this app, and they are using it.
In fact, I'd spark my interest because I've heard of it.
But I wasn't really sure exactly how it's used, but how it works and what exactly they're doing.
And also just how this all plays in, maybe other people is starting to draw some attention to this and the issue.
And so we reached out and thought we would talk to founder, someone who will discuss this with us.
Ron DeHas is with us right now from Covenant Eyes.
Ron, we appreciate you being here with us today on the Glimback program.
Hey, Justin, it's great to be here.
Thank you.
So tell us what Covenant Eyes is and where it came from.
And then we'll get into Maga, Mike.
and his story in just a little bit.
But what's the app about and where did it come from?
It is quite a story.
And I agree with everything you just said.
You know, it's interesting.
So here's how Covenant Eyes works.
First of all, you get an ally, someone who cares about you and is willing to hold you
accountable for your Internet use.
And your ally will then get from Covenant Eyes a regular check-in on your activity.
and so the idea is to be porn, right?
And so the result is, and here's the kind of the statistics of the result.
The result is that less than 5% of our software users cross the explicit threshold from the very first day that they use it.
So, in other words, even from the very first day, 95% of covenantized members are successful in avoiding explicit material.
And we get that from over 100 million data points that we gather every month.
And now compare that to cigarettes, for instance.
Imagine if there was a solution that was 95% successful in beating cigarettes from the very first day.
It's pretty remarkable.
Why is this such a problem for something?
I mean, I can imagine what you're going to catch and what the app might track.
But, you know, just looking at anything, Facebook or Instagram or anything social media, people are going to come across,
their chances are they're going to come across stuff that, I mean, it's right there on that edge and sound a lot of times crosses.
Yeah, we have to face the facts that everybody, now there are a few exceptions that I've come across,
but virtually everybody has been tempted by porn on the Internet.
The statistics show that upwards of 70% of men and upwards of 50% of women actually have an ongoing struggle with it.
And I've corresponded with hundreds of teens and young adults who have struggled with porn since they were younger than 13.
And these are people that come, kids that come from good homes.
You know, their parents really are shocked to find this out.
And rarely do I hear from anyone under 25 who was not exposed to poor.
by the time they were 12, it has become the sex education of our young people.
It is training the boys, young boys, this is how you treat girls, and it's teaching the girls,
this is how you get treated. It really is becoming the sex education of our youth. And, you know,
it's interesting, the growth of the erectile dysfunction industry,
ED. In 1941, the Kinsey report showed that less than 1% of men 18 to 32 had ED.
And by 2013, there were three peer-reviewed studies that showed that upwards of 30% of young men
18 to 32 have ED. And so two decades ago, the ads for the ED drugs were,
old men talking to old men in the ad now you listen to the ads it's young men talking to young men
and so that's the that's the results i can see the headline uh here what as i i know this isn't about
to say it but like this is this is what i what i'm thinking ron but like um porn is a communist
plot and i know that the headline is coming but i want to say that like that that it is it is it is it is
It is a version of evil, and it's a very seductive version that may start out in a very sort of relatable or just introductory way, and it gets worse and worse and worse over time that people have talked about this.
But it really does seem to me that we are under attack these days, not just obviously with the physical that we're facing on the battlefields across the world, but also in our hands, we've got these devices.
There's an information battle happening.
there's a battle for the soul of the nation in a lot of ways through information, propaganda.
But if you can get, it seems to me, into the relationships of men and women and even stop them from having them at all in America,
and you can put a little wedge in between husbands and wives and just affect people in that way.
I mean, you can do tremendous damage.
And I'm just reminded of Paul Harvey in that, you know, that's famous, if I were the devil segment that he did years ago, that piece.
I mean, it just, it's like prophetic the way that so many of those things have come true.
But these are the things you might do, you know, and that's why I just think about all of the ramifications that we're seeing because of social media or any number of websites or things that have things on them that might lead people down a path that they don't want to be on.
You know, you're absolutely right.
Pornography is damaging every relationship that you can think of.
It's your family, your friends, it impedes your work.
It impedes whatever ministry you have.
And 93% of our members, we do a poll of 300,000 members what we have, we do a poll.
And 93% say that the, the,
reason they are, one of the reasons that they're using covenant eyes is to improve their relationship
with God. And they recognize that it has damaged that. So, and so, so, you know, the Mike Johnson
story, for instance, the true story is he was being a good parent. Mike Johnson, the true
story is, Mike Johnson is a good father. And you're right. People have taken that and turned it
around to evil, that that's an evil thing. Being a good father is a bad thing. So he introduced this
app with his son and a way to help keep him accountable. It sounds like, and this sounds like a great
way for him and his son to grow their relationships. So tell me what, what's the story on him?
The true story about what happened with Mike as a father.
On a panel in a Baptist church gathering, and this was a year ago now,
And there was a video recording of the panel.
And in that panel, I mean, it's like, honestly, the Speaker of the House doing an advertisement for Covenant Eyes,
because he talked about Covenant Eyes accountability and how well it works and how he used Covenant Eyes successfully to help teach his son to stay away from pornography.
And so the headline, Rolling Stone magazine ran the headline.
So when Mike Johnson goes to his son and he says,
I want to hold you accountable and I want you to hold me accountable on our internet use
because I want us both to avoid pornography.
I want us both to hold each other accountable.
And so they installed Covenant Eyes on their computers.
And here's the headline from Rolling Stone.
Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson.
Oh, my gosh.
That was the headline that really kind of stirred up this whole story.
And, of course, that's not quite the actual story.
The actual story is that Mike Johnson, a good father,
had a desire to discourage his son from getting trapped by pornography.
And not only that, he sets an example for his son by holding himself accountable with his son,
mutual accountability.
So the real story is Mike Johnson is a good father.
That is quite a contrast, and we could use more good fathers who are active and engaged
in parenting, and we ought to salute him.
So, Ron, how can people download the app and where can they go to find it?
Covenantyes.com.
if you have and it is available on of course the laptop the Mac and Windows computers
but also on the iPhone and the Android and by the way the ratings that we get on Android and
Mac are really pretty impressive we have one one and a half million downloads on
on the two on Android and the iPhone.
And between with all those downloads,
it is very tough to get a rating above four on either platform.
But on Android, we have a 4.7 rating from nearly 10,000 reviews.
And on the iPhone, with over a million downloads,
and nearly 50,000 reviews, we get a 4.3 rating.
And so it really is, you know, our internal data shows that it's successful, but also what people say about it.
Bottom line is, if you want to beat porn, accountability works.
And so if you just go to covenantize.com, you can download it there.
By the way, there is on the iPhone and the Android.
There's a free version that we call Victory.
And the purpose of victory is to change the course of history by providing content and a course.
and other information that will help you beat porn.
That's totally free.
And I encourage people to at least get that.
And then take a look at our accountability program because it really does work.
And by the way, there's a phone number at the bottom.
We have world-class customer service.
We never get a complaint on our customer service.
And they will walk you if necessary.
If you're not accustomed to downloading things,
and a lot of people aren't.
Just call our customer service.
They will walk you through it step by step on how to set up your iPhone
with parental control, even beyond Covenant Eyes, parental controls and all that.

The latest I saw today from Julie's feed, and by the way, if you're not following her on
X or formerly Twitter, we'll give you the details about how you can follow it.
Just type in Julie Kelly, and she will come up.
It's Julie underscore Kelly, too.
But she's been following all of this all the way back, following part of President
Trump's legal battles as well.
But she's posted today a story where a judge has told the person who's being charged
that they can't dip in to go fund me, basically a fun crowd fundraiser in order to help feed the family.
I mean, something as simple as that.
Maybe pay some bills, maybe even legal bills.
I just
This stuff
You can't make it up the insanity
And it's largely not being reported
Outside of folks like Julie
And that's why it's being allowed to happen
Because there's no sunlight
Being put on any of this
These judges and some of the things
That are happening in D.C.
Are just happening under the cover of darkness
But hopefully we'll put a bit of an end to that today.
Julie Kelly joins us now.
Julie, I appreciate you being here with us today.
Hey, Justin, thanks for having me on.
Yeah, this story that the judges said they can't use their go-fund me and all.
It's just insanity to me.
This is a defendant named Jeremy Gross Close.
He was not convicted of any violent crime.
He wasn't convicted of assaulting police officers or destroying federal property.
He was found guilty during a bench trial, which means a single judge determines his guilt or innocence.
and this is Judge Chris Cooper, an Obama appointee who happens to be married to a top chief of former Attorney General Eric Holder, and the two were married by none other than current Attorney General Merrick Garland.
So that should give you a little insight as to, and look, this is universal with these judges having ties either directly themselves through a spouse, whomever, to this Department of Justice.
Chris Cooper found this man guilty of numerous offenses.
And then at his, when he announced his verdict on Tuesday,
the Department of Justice under U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia,
Matthew Graves, another Biden appointee,
not only asked for the judge to immediately remand Mr. Gross Coast into custody,
he snitched on Mr. Gross-Cloves' closes, give-son-go account,
created by his commonwealth wife.
They've been together.
He told me since they were 11 years old.
They have two special needs children together.
They've raised about $40,000 from the public.
And this DOJ, now is Judge Cooper,
directed or orally ordered,
that Mr. Gross Close not use any of those funds
that had been raised.
And how can that even be legal?
I know.
Under what?
They don't care.
How are they mentally, what are the gymnastics that they are jumping through the hoops to make that a thing?
Or is it just that blatant that they don't care?
They don't care.
There is no oversight.
This is one of many reasons why we need either video or audio feed to every federal criminal district courtroom.
Because unless you go there and I have to pay to go to Washington,
DC, sit in the courtroom where no devices are allowed in, you know, the old-fashioned way,
write down as much as you can, or you can go into specially allotted media rooms where you could
see the proceedings, only the ones that are chosen, by the way, see the proceedings happening live
and then you can, you know, type it out in your computer or post it on social media.
There's no reason why these trials and proceedings should not be accessible to the public,
except for the fact that you have sadistic judges like Judge Chris Cooper who gets away with all of this because there is no public oversight.
There's no congressional oversight.
I have urged House Republicans after they took over the House.
I've asked them, here are judges.
This is what they're doing under cover of darkness right down the street from where you guys work.
This is what they're doing to American citizens.
you know, haul some before a hearing. Let's do our own J6 committee. Have Judge Chris Cooper explain
why he did that under what law enables him to do that. Hull all of these judges why they're
holding nonviolent offenders for nearly two years under pretrial detention orders. I've got a long
list of unconstitutional, more importantly, inhumane things that these judges have done. And to your
point, unless you cover it, someone like me, you didn't see the corporate media, the J6 reporters who are
assigned to cover January 6th at this courthouse. You didn't see them posting about this. And there's a
reason why, because part of it is to promote the agenda, the narrative of J-SIC also to cover up with these
judges and DOJ are doing. So Mr. Gross closes public defender, Carmen Hernandez, filed a motion on
Wednesday morning asking what law Chris Cooper and the DOJ could cite that enabled him to direct
him not to use funds out of a fund he didn't create and he didn't donate to that American citizens
have donated to. So, as I said, one in a very, very long list. And this is why we need
public access to especially the D.C. courthouse. Julie Kelly's with this right now talking about
the latest in these cases.
and obviously we had speaker in the house Mike Johnson say that he would release and we
heard this before but he would release some of these more of these videos footage
from that day we've seen some of it come out what what have you seen that's
that that you think has made a difference and is there any yet still to come
what's the impact going to be on all of this well I think you saw the impact
just and not just from people on our side
many of whom have not seen the surveillance video.
Of course, I was granted access to it.
I have seen these videos of police officers standing by allowing protesters into the building,
fist bumping them, doing nothing to indicate that the building was closed
or that they were somehow committing a crime.
But most Americans have not seen this.
So they were shocked and outraged that this is the first time they had seen this video.
and then you saw the reverse reaction from the J6 propagandists in the media, people like Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, reposting well-worn clips of clashes between protesters and police that day, as if that is the only thing that happened.
So they are panicking because the release of these tapes is gradually unraveling their carefully constructed narrative, millions of Americans, including lawmakers and even senators,
like Mike Lee, are asking questions why this video has not been released and why the January 6th committee,
of course, cherry-picked videos, as we know, only a focus on the alleged role of Donald Trump and not
everything else that was happening that day. So I applaud Mike Johnson. I do want to say that
Speaker McCarthy's office has been working on this for months. I know for a fact that they've been
trying to work on a platform that was easily accessible to the public because these videos just
are not easily accessible.
But I urge Speaker Johnson to accelerate the rate of release.
This is only a teeny tiny handful of clips.
He needs to release a lot more on a rolling basis,
so we can continue the drumbeat to unravel this narrative
and push for our own January 6th Select Committee
that will do the actual work in exposing the truth.
We've got to take a quick break here.
I want to ask you more about some of these.
that have been released, but also that committee.
And whether or not some of the stuff was destroyed,
we've been hearing that maybe some of the evidence and videos may have been,
some of that footage may have been destroyed.
I want to see if there's any truth to that.
We're talking with Julie Kelly right now.
We'll be back in just a quick second.
Got to take a quick, just pause in the break here,

And Julie dash, that's underscore Kelly, too, over on X or Twitter, if you want to stay up to date.
We'll ask her more about that coming up in a second.
But we heard some rumors, Julie, that some of this footage or evidence, certainly we know it was doctored.
We've seen the way they had left things in or took things out during the committee and the hearings.
But was any of it truth to this that some of this may have been destroyed?
Yes.
And I'm working on a piece about that right now.
Not only that some of the evidence is missing, and of course they were supposed to,
this January 6th committee, Benny Thompson, the chairman and Nancy Pelosi, are supposed to preserve
all records produced during that congressional session and turn that over to the relevant
committee.
So all of this really should have been turned over to the House Administrative Committee.
Well, Representative Barry Loudermil has, you know, contrasted what they have.
versus when investigators and other records show that the committee should have, and there are big
discrepancies in the trove that the GOP was given and what the J6 committee produced.
Also, per a letter that I received, someone said to me, between House Republicans and both
the Biden White House and Benny Thompson, all the video interviews, remember, they cherry picked
all the clips from Cassidy Hutchinson talking about how Donald Trump tried to strangle the Secret
Service agent who was driving the limo that day, et cetera. All of those videos are missing. They have not
been turned over to this committee. Furthermore, on that note, the transcript, the transcribed
interview with body Engel who is driving the beast or whatever they call it the limo that day,
the Cassidy Hutchinson said under oath that Donald Trump tried to strangle.
him for not taking him to the Capitol, that transcribed interview has not been released publicly
either. There are hundreds of transcribed interviews, just the records missing, not to mention the
videos. So I'm doing some work on that. I believe that Representative Loudermilk Committee
continues digging into what they have and what they don't have. And I think that that's a great
effort. But look, it's time to turn the tables, which is why I detail in a recent substact.
piece, why the Republicans need to form their own J6 committee, not the least of which is the
videos, videos that are missing, videos like surveillance that have been under protective orders for
almost three years, but where are the missing records? Why was House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
off limits in the J6 committee's investigation? Where are, you know, other report, where are
the reports of police brutality and use of excessive force that day, which prompted
many of the clashes that we saw.
You have Liz Cheney who just cherry picks protesters and police in these physical scuffles,
but they don't show what police had done for an hour before those scuffles began,
which has assault the crowd outside with flashbangs, tear gas, rubber bullets, and pepperballs,
which agitated the crowd outside, most of whom were doing absolutely nothing wrong.
And were these rogue responses, or were they orders coming down from somewhere else?
Well, that's what we need to know. And it's important to note that former chief, Capitol Police Chief Stephen Sun, who is really the fall guy in all of this. And of course, he gave up his resignation the day after Nancy Pelosi used him as the scapegoat. But he has publicly testified that he was left in the dark. He was not in communication with the FBI. He was not aware of the dozens of undercover.
agents from both DC Metropolitan Police, Capitol Police, Department of Homeland Security.
We can go on and on.
He was intentionally left in the dark.
Why?
Which, by the way, left his own officers out to dry as well.
But someone ordered MPD, D.C. police to start firing on this crowd at about 110 that afternoon,
which Justin just happened to coincide with the exact time that Donald Trump finished his speech at the ellipse.
sure it's just a coincidence
sure
oh it's a conspiracy theory
conspiracy theory that's my favorite
oh so many
coincidental
moments happening these days
it's hard to keep track of it all
Julie Kelly with us right now
talking January 6th
and one of the things that I've seen
it's maybe one of the most
this
this whole thing is really opening up
okay so this is one of the most
we've heard
that they're going to start going after people who maybe were around,
maybe didn't do anything, just had somehow set foot somewhere in the crowd that day.
There has been talk about that.
There has been conversation about what might happen, who might they go after next.
And there's something even more frightening.
I think that has devastating effect and impact today,
not just on that actual day itself.
And I'll talk about that in a second.
But I first want to ask you about what have you heard about how they plan to start opening up?
Because they want to bolster from what I've seen and heard.
Maybe you've written about this too,
is that they want to bolster these numbers and inflate them as much as they can,
the closer they get to the election here.
They absolutely do.
And look, they've already been arresting people who,
never went inside the building. The very first article I wrote entitled America's Political Prisoners
back in February of 2021 was the arrest of Cui Griffin, the founder of Cowboys for Trump. He was arrested
and denied release at request of Joe Biden's new DOJ. And he was charged with two misdemeanors.
And he, I believe, had a permit like many others did to demonstrate on Capitol grounds during
the joint session. So he was one of the very first two-was charged. He never went inside the building.
Neither did someone like Brandon Strach. They tried to destroy him as well. He was also one of the first
arrested. Matthew Graves, the DCUS attorney appointed by Joe Biden, whose wife, by the way,
going back to spouses, runs an extremely influential $100 million nonprofit in Washington.
This nonprofit and she are very involved in the offer to remove Clarence Thomas from the
Supreme Court. Matthew Grace told the Washington Post last year that he expected the total case load
to reach extend beyond 2,000 individuals. At the time, it was less than half of that. Matthew Grace
recently bragged in an update for the capital siege investigation as he rebranded it.
1,200 and counting defendants. You have a new arrest announced every week, including this week.
So they are desperately trying to reach that caseload, but also to keep this in the news as we approach Donald Trump's March 4th trial for January 6th.
We're not going to let this die down.
And Julie, maybe we could talk more with you in the future.
Obviously, Julie underscore Kelly, too, over on X, but where else can folks find out how to stay in touch with you?
Sure.
All my reporting can be found at my substack declassified with Julie Kelly.
I've also done extensive work at real clear investigations so people can check out.
my article's there as well.
Julie Kelly,
thank you so much for being here with you.
Appreciate your work.
God bless.
Justin,
thanks for having me on YouTube.
Glenn Beck covering this along with the Blaze.
You know,
this is a story and they've got details and video that continues to come out.
That proves some of these folks,
these Capitol Police,
has one very powerful one perjured,
lied on the stand.
These reports are going to be significant.
They're going to be critical.
And the blaze will continue to cover it all as far as I'm concerned.
I've been hearing all those reports and look forward to hearing more in the future.
We continue to cover that.
And the story you probably won't hear much about.
He's in Ireland now.
In fact, 15 minutes away from where the riots took place in Dublin, what happened?
And how is the media covering and twisting everything that happened overnight last night?
It dovetails into our immigration crisis here.
That next.
Who's there for the families left behind when a service member of first responder dies or his catastrophic?
injured in the line of duty.
Who's helping our nation's homeless veterans?
And who's helping our nation keep its vow to never forget 9-11?
I'll tell you who.
The Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
The foundations in the line of duty programs honor our nation's heroes in their family.
That includes its gold star, fallen first responder, smart home and homeless veterans programs.
The foundations never forget programs.
Engage people in 9-11 remembrance events all across the country.
Over 80 runs, walks, and climbs a year.
dozens of golf outings and barbecues,
and the Tunnel to Towers 9-11 Institute
is helping educate kids in kindergarten
through 12th grade about our nation's darkest day.
More than 95 cents of every dollar you donate
to Tunnel to Towers goes to its programs,
and the charity keeps its word and honors our nation's greatest heroes.
Will you donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers?
Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org.
That's T, the number two T.org.
It is wild to watch, and it's kind of reminiscent to me
of the BLM Antifa moments to see your city burn or to see any riot or anything take place in your
own neighborhood. It is jarring. I saw that in my city in 2020. Living in Grand Rapids at the time
when the city burned in some ways. There were riots, windows smashed. It was an incredible
moment. I was on the air during the entire thing. And covering it, it was. It was.
It was in a city that I originally moved to because it felt like Disneyland clean.
It was just that nice.
It was that good.
The people in West Michigan have their stuff together, and it's a beautiful thing.
We saw it all fall apart in the summer of 2020.
So I can't imagine what is happening in Ireland, particularly Dublin, as we hear the story and see the videos coming out.
what's buses on fire buildings on fire one of the green buses from the footage that's floating around on
the internet right now is completely engulfed in flames the words out spray painted on the bus
but the the back and forth about what happened and who's responsible in some of this and where it all
started breaks down to a story that is even more
more concerning.
The media is spending this today as far right activists have gone off the deep end.
Well, where this originally started, where about five people, I think three of them were children,
stabbed outside of a school.
So now, apparently, if you are against, I saw this, saw this online, that I think that's good.
Let's keep in track here.
If you're against children or anyone being stabbed, you are now far right.
If you are against pornography being taught in schools' indoctrination, you are now far right.
If you are a feminist and you believe that women should be competing against women, you want to protect them, you're now far right.
These are crazy.
I don't think we've ever seen times like this.
but that's the case.
People are seeing through it and they are, they're fighting back.
On the line with us now is Jonathan Dunn, a good friend.
In fact, someone who used to work for Glenn and the Blaze here,
he joins us now to talk about, in fact, just 15 minutes away from where he is,
what has happened over the course of the last few days and where things so now.
Jonathan, thank you, my brother, for being here with us today.
Talk in the morning, brother.
Thanks for having me on.
and hope you all have a happy Thanksgiving.
It has been.
I don't know if it was as eventful as the last couple of days for you.
Oh, man.
So break this down.
I come back to Ireland for a visit.
Yeah, you've been here in America for a while now
and went back to take care of your mom
and have been doing some time with spending some time with family there.
But can you break it?
What I just said, can you cover it to clean it up?
What I just said, can you break down what is happening?
happened and where things stand right now?
Yeah, so what happened?
I hear the facts of the story,
and then we can get into the underlying principles,
which no one will ever want to discuss,
because we don't want to have a discussion today.
So the fact of the matter is that 1.30 local crime yesterday,
there's a school, got discharged.
What we know is there was a person hanging around acting very suspicious,
had a knife on him,
proceeded to stab three young kids,
and one very critical, and is still, as right now,
is still in critical care,
and is touch and go.
One is a carer and one is the person involved.
Information is very sketchy coming out from the police.
They're not following any other lines of inquiry.
They know exactly who did it.
We do know it's an immigrant, but because of the tensions that brings up,
they're not releasing a whole lot of information.
Then last night, basically the city went into a bit of craziness
and buses were, and the Lewis, which is like a train station,
a train that runs on the ground,
was basically destroyed and put on fire,
and buildings were looted,
buildings were destroyed,
the estimates are coming already
in tens of millions of dollars worth of damage.
So they're the facts of the story.
What we have is an underlying tension
that is not going to go away
until we start having hard conversations with people.
What you have to understand is,
America is very different in the terms of political.
There is a far right in Ireland.
There is a far right in Europe, and you should be afraid of them,
because you have to understand their ideology.
Likewise, there's a far left.
And what you have to understand about these two factions is they hate each other,
but they have so much in common.
Their principles are about government.
And what they disagree on is this.
They all believe, if you line down the far left and the far right,
it's like the far left in the market and some moderate republicans they both believe in big governments
they both believe in high taxation they both believe in high regulations they both believe in child care
and health care any government policy you believe they want us where they firmly disagree where it boils to
hatred and willing to kill each other is the far left are communists and the far right are national
socialists. So what one wants is the far left believes in an international type of socialism
where everyone comes in. We should just accept everyone, whether you're an Irish person,
the English person, because there is no Irish person. It's workers of the world unite.
But you cannot have a national identity. You cannot have anything like that. So it's for everyone.
So I'm Irish, you're American, you're Scottish, you're English, you're Lithuanian,
you're African, it doesn't matter. Everyone is entitled because it's the workers of the world
unites. The far right says no.
It's about the national system that it's, I'm Irish.
And while I believe in universal health care and universal school system and all these different plans, I believe they are for Irish people only.
Or if I'm living in England, I believe they're for English people only.
And what you have is the far left and the far white boat want chaos.
They want this.
They want the destruction of the cities.
They want the destruction of civilization.
And the sad thing is the far left are winning because if you say someone like, let me give an example, my mom.
My mom is not very political at all.
I mean, she follows the news, but she's not left or right.
She probably doesn't know too much about the difference of it.
But one thing I can tell you about my mom that would paint her as a far right person is she is one of the most proudest Irish persons, people that you'll meet.
She loves Ireland.
She's like, you know, I'm Irish and, you know, I love the tricolor and I'm proud to be Irish and I'm so glad I was born here.
That is radical thought right now to the far left.
You know, if you say anything about all these immigrants,
have come in to Ireland over the last year,
18 months. You've had the influx
of the illegal immigration. You've had the influx of the
Ukrainian immigration. You've now have an
influx probably potentially from Palestine and Israel.
If you dare say,
hey, should we question
who comes into the country? Oh, what are you
racist and xenophobic?
Oh, well, we'll take 10,000,
but I say we should only take 5,000
people. Oh, there you go, there's, do you
hear the racist undertones under there?
You cannot have a conversation.
and this is something we are going to have to do with
because what you're seeing right now
is the total destruction of society
you said it perfectly beautifully in the intro
where you cannot have an opinion where
if you dare say in Ireland
you know a man has a penis and a girl has a vagina
in Ireland that's called a hate crime
a hate crime
that's simple biological fact
but it's a hate crime
they're trying to destroy us and what we have to do
is ignore the far left, ignore the far right,
and unite as people based on a set of principles.
And that is where America comes in.
Because I hate them the person that always points to America,
but it's true.
You're the only country, and thank God it's my home now.
So I'm not just pointing out on you.
I'm doing this myself,
where I'm saying,
we have to understand why America made the world better.
And it's not because of America and because of Ra-D-Rod, the people.
It's because of a set of that.
values. What you're seeing is there is no foundational stone in the world. Everything is up for grabs.
There's chaos. If I may quote Jordan Peterson, what we need is a bit of order and structure.
And the only order and structure that ever came in the history of the world was Christianity and the
founding principles of America.
Jonathan Dunn is with us right now. It's a good friend. And this conversation, Jonathan,
And I, you know, it's funny because we could talk about this.
We could go in depth and you and I could probably spend hours talking about it.
I don't, obviously don't have the time to do that, but you are an immigrant here in America.
You're seeing this up close and personally.
You've seen the process.
You've seen how it's played out for you and how it's playing for some right now or just walking across the border.
I want to talk about that, and I want to dig in a little bit further and touch on the principles, the things that are at stake here.
What really is the issue?
How do we fix these problems, these challenges that we're dealing with right now?
But I've got to take a quick break.
So if you're going to hang on, if you could, just I know where –
That's a long-distance phone call here overseas.
Jonathan is in Ireland as we speak.
He's near Dublin there where just 15 minutes away from him.
where these rights took place. And I think, as I watch it, it could be a prelude, a preview,
it's certainly a warning of things that could come here in America. And as he just mentioned,
there's a lot of folks who want to see just that. They want the chaos. They want the division.
They want to see it all crumble down around us, because then they can remake it into their own
image. What do you think build back better is all about anyway? More after this.

What are you looking for when you walk down the meat aisle at the grocery store?
You're looking for some kind of real good meat that you can feed your family, right?
You want something raised in America and you're looking for something close to expiring
because that's the only way you can get a good price.
If you are in this situation, what you put on your table matters.
and that's why you should get your meat from Good Ranchers,
because you're going to cover all of those things.
85% of the grass-fed beef is imported from overseas,
but not with Good Ranchers.
They source all of their high-quality beef and chicken
from local farms and ranches,
and from every box ordered.
Good Ranchers donates 10 meals to Americans in need.
That's over a million meals so far.
So do good while you eat good.
Don't settle for less than the best meats,
and don't settle for meat that's been raised overseas.
Go to Good Ranchers.com and use my promo code, Beck, for $25.

Our good Irish friend,
Jonathan Dunn, joins us right now,
from Dublin.
That area where the riots took place yesterday
and the story behind it.
We've been talking about that,
And I think it is a prelude of certainly a warning of things that could come here in America as we are being pushed further and further to the brink every day.
You're talking about why that matters.
First, I wanted to ask you.
I'm going to get into the principles and things like that.
But first I wanted to ask you, Jonathan, what the process had been like you've been trying to come here for years.
Finally, you've had a chance to come here and work, that immigration process.
But you're ultimately seeing, as you spent years trying to get here, millions pouring across the border.
and every day there's more and more.
How is that to watch that?
I just can't imagine.
Oh, it's,
if you want to do a poor me for like 10 seconds,
it's a really rig system.
You know, it costs me $5,000, $6,000, $7,000.
I couldn't work for a year.
I had to go through all immigration questions,
basically answer every type of question known to man
about my background, you know,
my work experience and stuff like that.
It's an invasion of privacy, but for me, it's worth it because America is worth it.
But wait, wait, wait, wait.
This is why we need this process, because you are the person who needs to come to America.
Not somebody just wants to come for a free ride or even worse.
But you're the kind of person who needs to be in this country because you love it.
I do, and I'll die for this country.
I'm so thankful every day that I get to call America.
home. You know, I'm back
in Ireland and everyone's saying, welcome home, and that's great,
and I appreciate that, but my home is Oklahoma
America. I will go down
with this ship and I will do everything I
can to stand for the values
that America made exceptional, because
I'm seeing the chaos. You know, I'm
seeing it in Ireland, I'm seeing it in our
homeland. We're not immune
or above this. This could happen
anywhere, and you're seeing the
far left become more and more radical, and
if you dare disagree with them, you're a xenophobia,
or homophobia, you're a racist,
and what we need to do is stand up
but we just can't stand up and hit back
because then if everyone hits back
all we get is black eyes everyone
what we need to do is stand up
and America is the only country that can say
we're going to stand up but this is what we're going to stand
for we're going to stand for the Constitution
we're going to stand for federalism
we're going to stand for the individual
and you know what else we're going to do
and it's because it's become a bit of cliche
but we're going to be proud to be an American
and I would encourage if there's any people
global seas listening, be by my mom.
Be proud to be Irish.
Be proud to be English. Because if
you are, it makes it that bit harder
for them to destroy you because that
is what they want. They just want to see you as a
shell, as a clump of beans, as
nothing more than a part of the collective.
The American experience is about the individual.
I will stand with anyone who stands
for the Bill of Rights. I will stand
with anyone who believes in free markets.
Because here's the thing.
And visiting Ireland is really something.
on how bad things are. The economy's crazy. Gas is true to root, food prices are true to
the roof, and just the overall optimism for the future. America's bad right now. We have
a horrifically bad president, a president who barely knows his own name at any point. But you
know how bad as America has it? We still have it that much better than the rest of the world.
And I think that is the motivation thing we need to get back to and start getting to a set of
principles and start looking optimistically because there is no set of values or principles
that can compete with the American family principles.
Jonathan Dunn.
We change the world once.
I mean, we'll do it again.
I can hear you talk about the greatness of this country all day long.
I know folks might want to hear that too.
I know you had a podcast at once.
Where can folks follow you and find you online?
If you look at Freedom's Disciple on Facebook or Twitter, you'll find me, and I'll be
making some big news over the next couple of weeks as well.
Keep an eye on it.
Thank you, my brother.
wishing you the best and praying for you and all the folks there.
The hostages released today about 25 of them in Israel so far.
None of them among the 25 Americans.
That story continuing to develop.
And of course, we'll have the latest for you.
